The United States of Sera Military, Seran Armed Forces (SAF), and colloquially known as the Royal Armed Forces (RAF) is the designated military forces for the United States of Sera. The armed forces contains five active service branches: the Royal Army, Royal Marines, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, and the Valkiri Royal Guard. Although Sera has a coast guard, the coast guard is organized and run by the Department of National Security instead of the Department of War. The Prime Minister of the USS acts as the High Commander for the Seran Armed Forces and dictates military policy, tactics, regulations, and protocols with the Chairman of the Board of Defense Ministers, Secretary of War, and Director of National Security. During rare occurrences, the Monarch of Sera is granted the ability to lead the armed forces in the Prime Minister's stead. However, such an occasion can only be granted by Parliament in the event that the acting Prime Minister is found incompetent or otherwise incapable of fulfilling their duties.
After being formed on June 7th, 1741 on Unification Day, the SAF have played a pivotal role in Seran and world history. The shared identity and mission of the branches provided much needed unity to the newly formed nation and offered structure and discipline to the newly created warrior caste. The branches served the nation for over 200 years by defending the people from secessionists during the early 1800s during the Secessionist War, protected the borders during the anti-piracy operations of the early 2000s, and defeated the rouge nation Sparta Eternal during the Invasion of Sparta in the middle of 2021.
The SAF boasts some of the most well-trained military forces in the world due to the devoted Warrior Caste that makes up the majority of active duty personnel. These soldiers spend their free time training, honing their skills, and perfecting their form and disciple at all hours of the day when not actively engaged in operations. Although not as technically advanced as other nations or as large, the SAF also relies on a national conscription program that can mobilize a vast number of individuals regardless of caste. Moreover, the conscription program of all adults turning 18 into the SAF ensures that every civilian (barring those with disability) receives military training and are required by law to be recertified with weapon handling every five years to maintain proficiency.
